Criuty College, Harttord. 


¢ 


TRINITY COLLEGE recognizes the Christian religion as 
the true basis of a right education. 

Her first care is, therefore, to provide for the instruc- 

tion and training of her students in the knowledge, the 
faith, and the practice of Christianity. By reference to 
the prescribed course of study, it will be seen that this 
work constitutes an integral and continuous portion of 
her system of instruction. 
. Her next care is to provide for what is regarded as 
the special and appropriate business of a College Educa- 
tion, a thorough Classical and Mathematical discipline, 
together with a right apprehension and a practical mas- 
tery of the English Language and Literature. 

Full courses of Instruction are also given in the prin- 
cipal Modern Languages—so useful in business and 
society, so rich in literary treasures, and so conducive to 
the expansion and cultivation of the mind;—while a 
liberal share of attention is appropriated to the leading 
departments of positive and practical knowledge; His- 
tory, Taste and Criticism; Law, Philosophy, Science 
and Art. 

Thus the College aims to make her students good 
Christians, good scholars, good citizens and good men. 

Trinity College is a College of the Episcopal Church ; 
but she welcomes to her bosom students of other Chris- 
tian denominations. She respects their faith and their 











6 


feelings, and, while her own religious instruction, im- 
parted in the spirit and under the forms of the Church, 
is simply and positively Christian, she allows all her stu- 
dents to attend Public Worship where their parents may 
desire, and to enjoy the spiritual guidance of their own 
religious teachers. 

Trinity College is not a Theological Institution, nor 
does it even comprehend any Theological department, 
but is simply, a proper Christian College. Its name is 
designed to attest forever the faith of its founders, and 
their zeal for the perpetual glory and honor of the ONE 
HoLy AND UNDIVIDED TRINITY. 


To this brief statement must be added some account 
of the internal organization and condition of the 
College. 

The Senatus ACADEMICUS consists of two houses, 
known as the CorporaTION and the House or Convo- 
CATION. 

The CorporaTION, on which the other house is 
wholly dependent, and to which, by law, belongs the 
supreme control of the college, consists of not more 
than twenty-four trustees, resident within the State of 
Connecticut; the Chancellor and President of the 
College being ex offictis members, and the Chancellor 
being ez officio President of the same. They have 
authority to fill their own vacancies; to appoint to 
offices and professorships; to direct and manage the 
funds for the good of the College; and in general, to 
exercise the powers of a Collegiate Society, according 
to the provisions of the charter. 


7 


The House or Convocation consists of the Fellows 
and Professors of Trinity College, with all persons who 
have received any academic degree whatever in the 
same, except such as may lawfully be deprived of their 
privileges. 

Its business is such as may from time to time be 
delegated by the Corporation, from which it derives its 
existence; and is, at present, limited to consulting and 
advising for the good of the College; nominating the 
Junior Fellows, and all candidates for admission ad 
eundem; making laws for its own regulation; propos- 
ing plans, measures or counsel to the Corporation; and 
to instituting, endowing and naming, with concurrence 
of the same, professorships, scholarships, prizes, medals, 
and the like. 

The CHANCELLOR is the Bishop of the Diocese of 
Connecticut, and is also the Visitor of the College. 

The PrestpENT. This officer, as his title imports, 
is the resident head and Rector of the College, and 
with the Proctors, who are the two senior Professors, 
the Executive of all laws for the discipline of under- 
eraduates. 

The Fettows. There are six Fellows appointed by 
the Corporation alone; and six Junior Fellows, who 
must be Masters of Arts, appointed by the Corporation 
on nomination of Convocation; and these together 
make the Board of Fellows. To this Board the Cor- 
poration commits the superintendence of the strictly 
academical business of the College; of the course of 
study and examinations; of the College laws; of col- 
legiate dress, and the like; and also certain powers and 
privileges in recommending for degrees. Hach Fellow 
and Junior Fellow is elected for three years; but there 
_is no emolument connected with the office, besides a 





8 


provision for necessary expenses incurred in its dis- 
charge. The Fellows, therefore, under existing laws, 
are not ordinarily resident. 

The DEAN oF Convocation presides in that House, 
and is elected by the same biennially. 

The Proressors hold their appointments from the 
Corporation, and by lectures and otherwise, instruct in 
their several departments. With the President and 
Tutors, they also form a board of government and 
control ever the under-graduates. . 

Tutors and Lecturers are appointed from time to 
time by the Corporation, to assist the Professors in the 
several departments of instruction. Private Tutors 
have no recognized character as officers of the College. 

ScHOLARSHIPS. These are permanent endowments, 
held by certain under-graduates according to the terms 
of their foundation, and paying stipends of different 
amounts to their incumbents. 

Hats. There are three buildings belonging to the 
College, which, in 1845, received the names of the first 
three Bishops of the Diocese. SraBury HALL, erected 
in 1825, contains the Chapel and the Library, Cabinet, 
and other public chambers. Jarvis HALL, erected in 
the same year, and BrowNeELL HALL, erected in 1845, 
contain rooms for the officers and students; and a wing 
of each is the residence of a professor and his family. 

The GROUNDS, on which the Halls are erected, are 
an area of fourteen acres, laid out with walks, and 
ornamented with shade-trees and shrubbery. The 
site is elevated, overlooking on one side the city of 
Hartford, within the limits of which the grounds are 
situated, and on the other the Little River, (a branch 
of the Connecticut,) which forms their western bound- 











9 


ary. ‘The river is suitable for boating and for exercise 
in swimming. 

THe Liprary, CABINET AND APPARATUS. There are 
about six thousand volumes in the Library in Seabury 
Hall; in which are also the portraits of several officers 
and benefactors of the College. Two Funds have been 
recently established for the increase of the Library; the 
Elton Fund of 5,000 dollars, the gift of John P. Elton, 
Hsq., of Waterbury; and éhe Sheffield Fund, consisting 
of 5,000 dollars in the stock of the New Haven and 
Northampton Railroad Company, the gift of Joseph E. 
Sheffield, Esq., of New Haven. There are two libraries 
belonging to the societies of under-graduates, containing 
an aggregate of six thousand volumes. The cabinet is 
an extensive collection of minerals and geological speci- 
mens, to which has lately been added an extensive 
collection of shells. <A valuable philosophical apparatus 
is distributed through the lecture rooms of the several 
Professors requiring its aid in their instructions. The 
Chemical Department has just been thoroughly reor- 
ganized, the Laboratory remodelled, and the apparatus 
greatly enlarged by extensive purchases in Europe. 

Terms. There are three terms in the year, of from 
twelve to fourteen weeks each; during which every 
under-graduate is required to be resident, unless under 
special dispensation from the President. 

EXAMINATIONS. These are held at the end of each 
term, in presence of examiners appointed by the Fellows, 
from their own number or otherwise; and every under- 
graduate is required to be present and sustain his pre- 
scribed examinations at such times, unless a special 
examination is allowed for sufficient causes. 

Vacations. The Christmas vacation istwo weeks 
from the Thursday preceding Christmas day. The 


2 





10 


Easter vacation is three weeks from the close of Lent 
term. The Midsummer vacation is eight weeks from 
Commencement day. | 

Exurpitions. Junior exhibition occurs at the close 
of Lent term; exhibitions of the literary societies, at 
such times as are deemed most convenient. 

CoMMENCEMENT. The third Thursday in July is 
Commencement day. On the day preceding, the Cor- 
poration and House of Convocation assemble, and an 
address and poem are publicly pronounced before the 
latter. On this day all applications for admissions 
ad eundem come before Convocation; and the annual 
elections of Fellows and Junior Fellows are usually 
held on this day, or on the morning following. On 
Commencement day, candidates for degrees perform 
appointed exercises in public; and all degrees are con- 
ferred and announced with prescribed forms. 

Decrees. The corporation is authorized by its char- 
ter to confer degrees in the arts, and in the faculties of 
Law, Medicine and Divinity. Nominations for degrees 
may come from the Fellows and Professors, or from the 
House of Convocation; but the candidates are admitted 
only by vote of the Corporation, and all degrees are 
publicly conferred in its name, by the President. 

Degrees in the faculties of Divinity and Law are con- 
ferred, at present, either in course, honoris causa, or on 
admission ad eundem. For the degree of Bachelor of 
Arts, the candidate must have sustained all his exami- 
nations, and paid all fees and charges; and must be 
nominated to the Corporation by the Fellows and the 
Faculty of Arts. To proceed Master of Arts, a like 
nomination is requisite at a period of not less than 
three years after commencing Bachelor. Masters may 
proceed Bachelors in either of the Faculties, at the end 


¢ 











11 


of seven years, upon the certificate of the Board of Fel- 
lows, grounded on examination and the recommenda- 
tion of the Chancellor and the President of the College. 
Bachelors in either of the Faculties may proceed Doc- 
tors in the same, at the expiration of three years, on 
the recommendation of the Chancellor, accompanied 
with a certificate of examiners, and a satisfactory thesis 
composed by the candidate. Degrees honoris causé ap- 
pertain to the Corporation only. 


Applications for degrees in course are required, by 
statute, to be made to the President of the College, 
during Lent Term. They cannot be received after the 
Senior Examination in Trinity Term.

further examination on those studies which have been 
read by the class they propose to enter. 

No student can be admitted to the Freshman Class

All candidates for admission must present satisfactory 
testimonials of good moral character; and those who 
are from other Colleges must produce certificates of 
dismission in good standing.

UNIVERSE Y STUDENTS. 


Provision has been made in the College Statutes, that 
those students who desire to omit certain of the studies 
prescribed for the degree of Bachelor of Arts, may be 
permitted to recite with the regular classes, in such 
studies as, upon examination, they shall be found qual- 
ified to pursue. They are expected to attend at least 
three recitations or lectures daily. They are subject to 
the same rules and enjoy the same privileges as the reg- 
ular students; and, on leaving, are entitled to a certificate 
from the President, stating the time they were members 
of College, and the studies pursued during that time. 

In certain cases, the degree of Bachelor of Science 
may be conferred.

GOVERNMENT AND DISCIPLINE. 


The Goverment is administered by the President and 
Professors. It is designed,to be mild and paternal—ap- 
pealing to the better feelings of the heart, and aiming 
to prevent, rather than punish misconduct. Punish- 
ments involving public disgrace are resorted to with 
reluctance. Ifa student does not conduct himself to 
the satisfaction of the Faculty, his parent or guardian 
will be promptly informed of it, and if it is judged 
necessary, requested to remove him from the Institution, 
In cases where dispatch is important, the delinquent 
will be privately dismissed. 

An accurate daily account of the proficiencies of 
every student, and also of his delinquencies,—if any 
occur,—is kept; an abstract of which is transmitted to 
his parent or guardian at the close of each term. 


PUBLIC WORSHIP. 


Prayers are attended every morning and evening in 
the College Chapel, when all the students are required 
to be present. They are also required to attend public 
worship on the Lord’s Day, either in the Chapel, or at 
such places as their parents or guardians may desire. 


EXPENSES. 


For tuition, $13 per term; for room rent, $4.50 per 
term; for the use of the Library, for sweeping rooms, 
ringing the bell, fuel for recitation rooms, and printing, 
$4 per term; all payable in advance. Besides the 
above, there will be occasional assessments for damages, 
extra printing, or other common expenses. 

Students admitted to an advanced standing, unless 
from other Colleges, are required to pay $10 for each 





37 


year of such advancement; and, for a shorter time than 
one year, in proportion. 

The students reside in the College, and provide for 
themselves bed and bedding, furniture for their rooms, 
fuel, candles, stationery and washing. Books and furn- 
iture may be sold, when the student has no further use 
for them, at a moderate reduction from the original cost. 

No Commons are established, as it is preferred that 
the students should board in private families, in the 
neighborhood of the College. Good board can now be 
procured for from $2.00 to $3.00 per week. 

Provision has been made, by special benefactions, for 
remitting their tuition to all indigent students who are 
communicants in the Protestant Episcopal Church. 
The necessary College expenses of such, exclusive of 
personal expenses, for clothing, fuel, furniture, &c., are 
as follows: 





Board, : : ’ . $100.00 per year. 
Room rent, ‘ ; 13,00, Ay 8 
Use of Library, eet ee Print- 
ing, &c., , : ; 12.00 
Assessment for public ghescnen Xe., 4.50 
TOtArS : . $130.00 


To prevent extravagant or improper expenditures, it 
is recommended that all funds designed for the use of 
students should be placed in the hands of the College 
Bursar, who superintends their expenses with a parental 
discretion. The present Bursar is A. JAcKSON, M. A., 
Professor of Moral and Intellectual Philosophy. 














Ahenaenm Callegii S. S. Crinitatis. 


Tus Society was organized in the year following the 
foundation of the College. 

The Constitution was framed by a committee consist- 
ing of the Rt. Rev. Bishop Brownell, Professor G. W. 
Doane, (now Bishop of New Jersey,) and others. 

At the weekly meetings each member takes part ‘in 
the exercises, consisting of Declamation, Composition 
and Extemporaneous Debate. 

The Library, which is constantly increasing, contains 
at present about four thousand volumes, and is rich in 
the Classics, works on Theology, Law, Poetry, Belles 
Lettres, and the Standard Literature of the day. 

The officers for the present (Lent) term, are 

President, EK. J. Purpy. Vice-President, J. Huec. 
Censor, G. S. Mautory. 1st Councillor, O. K. Gorpon. 
2d Councillor, H. K. Leaver. Secretary, G. R. HAtL- 
LAM. Librarian, J. A. Boucuton. Treasurer, WIL- 
uiAM R. Harris. Standing: Committee, A. S. DARRELL, ° 
W. T. Mappox, D. B. WALKER. ' 

Catalogues containing the names of Graduate and 
Honorary members, together with a history of the Soci- 
ety, and a classification of the books in the Library, may 
be obtained by addressing the Librarian. 





Che Marthenon, 


Tus Society was formed in 1827, by nineteen mem- 
bers from the Athenaeum; among whom were Park 
Benjamin, Esq., and the Rev. Caleb 8. Ives, late Mission- 
ary to Texas. 

From the time of its foundation the Society has stead- 
ily advanced, both in numbers and in spirit. In the 
Weekly Meetings all Members take part in the Exercises, 
which consist of Orations, Declamations, Compositions, 
Forensic Discussions and Extemporaneous Debates. The 
Library now contains upwards of two thousand and 
eight hundred volumes, and is also supplied with the 
leading Reviews and Periodicals of the day. 
~ Public Exhibitions are occasionally held, which have 
reflected credit upon the Society, and have served to 
stimulate the members to renewed exertions. 

Upon the whole the Parthenon was never in a more 
flourishing condition than at present; her Sons aiming 
more and more to realize their motto— 


‘¢POSSUNT QUIA POSSE VIDENTUR.”’
